It's a well-crafted series that keeps you guessing, with some excellent set pieces as well. Some of the supremely dangerous convicts and antagonistic forces could feel a little scarier or more dangerous, but The Last Frontier still boasts spycraft hat regularly feels new.

Ultimately, I think it scores more than it fails, but your mileage may vary depending on your tolerance for lies and deceit.

The opening scene starts with a riveting crash of a prison transport plane in the barrens of Alaska. This unleashes all of the violent inmates into the snowy wild and the stories diverge into their various escapes, esp. the mysterious former CIA agent (Dominic Cooper). Jason Clarke is cast as the U.S. Marshall charged with tracking them down. The action sequences are well-done and mildly violent and that’s the best aspect of the series. The personal interactions tend to drag the pace, but they’re sufficiently involving to fill the time until the next bad event. Clarke’s character is more interesting in Hulu’s “Murdaugh: Death in the Family” (my review), but he still manages to juggle the challenges effectively. The plot wanders with the inevitable betrayals and revelations, but it’s still worth a watch, esp. for the riveting moments of action. (Review based on 7 out of 10 one-hour eps)

3 episodes in and this series is a great non stop cliff hanger from the first episode of the prison inmate who you think is the villain to the the episode 3 cliff hanger this show is a must watch without giving away any in direct spoilers if your an action / thriller style viewer this show is a must watch and after only 3 episodes I’m hooked and ready for more .

Whether The Last Frontier can maintain this pace for the next nine hours is unlikely. But it’s a good start more than a rocky one (and note, future episodes reportedly stray from some of the core drama as Frank and co. track down loose escapees). Give it another ep or two before you move on.

“The Last Frontier” flits between two distinct modes, one entertaining and one frustrating.
Oct 10, 2025
The further “The Last Frontier” gets into the halls of power or Sidney’s past as the daughter of an agency legend — yes, she’s the CIA’s version of a nepo baby — the more you’ll wish we were back out on the frozen plain, hunting for murderous psychopaths as the elements do their worst.

It’s the very opposite of fast-moving, a lumbering and padded journey that stretches two hours of story across 10 hours bogged down in over-telegraphed twists, hollow military jargon and insufferable domestic melodrama, squandering most of the entertainment value of its premise and leaving most of its overqualified cast in the lurch.

The Last Frontier doesn’t necessarily need rich character depth—The Blacklist and 9-1-1 didn’t exactly become hits because of that—but audiences have a limit for manipulation that feels cheap and inconsistent.

Lots of talent and potential wasted by poor writing. Had some doubts in the first episode, but the second went downhill fast enough that we stopped watching. Characters, situations, dialog, all lacking enough sense to be worthwhile. A shame.

The first episode actually wasn’t that bad. Lots of filler just to stretch it to an hour, but at least the directing was really good, and that makes you forgive the fact that the show treats the audience like idiots and tries to create tension with cheap twists. But from episode 2 on, it all goes downhill in every way. More side plots, flashbacks, really dumb dialogue, even dumber situations, and one cliché after another, including “the safety is on.” And in some scenes you seriously wonder if the writer grew up in a basement and never left it, because many situations make no sense if you’ve ever met real people. For example, two cops find a van with two tied-up colleagues. Cop 1 gets upset and just walks away. Cop 2 just stands there, staring into nothing… who helps the two tied-up guys? No one. Time for a pointless flashback to completely pull you out of the story again. Too bad. Episode 1 wasn’t perfect, but it had potential. From episode 2 onward, it’s just cheap trash.
